Share-based Payment Arrangement [Text Block]

11. SHARE-BASED INCENTIVE PLAN

The Company maintains a restricted stock incentive plan for the purpose of attracting and retaining officers, employees, and non-employee board members. Share awards generally vest in equal annual installments over a three to ten year period from date of issuance. Non-vested shares have voting rights and are eligible for any dividends paid to common shares. The Company recognized compensation cost for these fixed awards over the service vesting period, which represents the requisite service period, using the straight-line method. Prior to our IPO, the value of non-vested shares was calculated based on the offering price of the shares in the most recent private placement offering of $20.00, adjusted for stock dividends since granted and assumed selling costs, which management believed approximated fair market value as of the date of grant. Upon our IPO, the value of non-vested shares granted is typically calculated based on the closing price of our common stock on the date of the grant.

A summary of the activity for the Company’s restricted stock was as follows:

The non-vested restricted shares outstanding as of December 31, 2021 will vest over the next one to six years.
